The History Council of NSW is fortunate to have secured a grant from Destination NSW to assist us to run the Annual History Lecture in Orange, NSW, this year.  We are using part of the grant to pay for a bus for our Annual History Lecture registrants to travel to and from Orange.

We can pick you up and drop you back at one of three locations (pls select on registration form):

• Central Station (Sydney CBD)
• Glenbrook
• Blackheath

Dates

Sydney-Orange:  Friday 28 October:  08:30 - meet at Central Station and travel by bus to Orange via Bathurst.  The bus will be a comfortable, 28-seater, but if we have more people registering than that, we will up the size of the bus to 48 people.  We anticipate being in Orange by 4pm, following 2 comfort stops in the mountains, and lunch (at own expense) in the Tremains Mill precinct of Bathurst.  

Orange-Sydney:  Sunday 30 October:  09:00 - meet at the Canobolas Hotel, Orange, to travel back to Sydney via Millthorpe, where you will be able to visit the museum, walk through the historic town, buy lunch and visit cellar doors and chocolate shops. Arrival back in Sydney (Central Station) will be at approx 17:30.
